In addition, spatial adequacy can also show how far something is. If something is far away, it can be shown if it is shown by turning the hand movement with the outstretched index finger, moving in slow motion and shaking the front hand by turning forward. At the same time, the head is slightly tilted backwards and the eyes are peeled as on the Farway object. Conversely, if an object is very close, this is shown in ASL pointing at it as if it were so close that you will have to remove your picky arm in a chicken wing position, bend its elbow and wrist, point at an angle down and forward. While you are showing this way, one can use an un manual or natural behavior, synonymous with proximity and called the cheek to the shoulder, in which you raise the shoulder of your arm and put your cheek near the shoulder raised while you clench your teeth. In the study of American sign language, the notions of “space correspondence,” “sign perspective” and “reality principle” are much balanced. These three closely related concepts simply refer to the signature and display of places and other physical objects as they are in real life. In other words, if you describe in ASL where the bathroom is, you should indicate in the direction where the bathroom is actually located, not in the opposite direction. This is generally what we mean by the principle of reality. You use the so-called “dedication room” or the area in front of your body, where the signs are signed, to indicate as clearly as possible where the objects are related to each other so that the recipient can find his way from your visual description. Moment, which means how you look, and the tilt of the head are used in addition to showing directions.
To see z.B. a right turn while pointing to the right, tilt your head to the left as if you were looking right at the corner. The signatory`s point of view means that spatial relations are always signed in the ASL from the signatory`s point of view and are not adapted to the recipient`s perspective. If you sign a z.B card, display different points on the map as if the card were in front of you. They would not try to turn around to face their recipient. Similarly, with regard to the principle of reality, if you describe a piece, you would sign it from your point of view, as if you were entering the door of the room with the room on the other side of the door of you. You wouldn`t want to rotate the room in the dedication room in front of you to move the door in front of the recipient.
